Hey all - no progress yet on the top vote-getting bushcraft axes here. I've contacted the various manufacturers but so far no luck. As for the previous posts, there are some valid points on both sides. Most ultralight hikers don't carry axes. But if you practice bushcraft, you can still get the lightest stuff available. And getting by with less gear and more knowledge and skill is the ultralight way, and using an ax to help with fuel and shelter could prove a very handy tool. There is a lot of interest here in bushcraft gear, and maybe one day that would be it's own community. Until that happens, I appreciate the polls for all lightweight gear, whether its bushcraft, climbing, backcountry skiing or bikepacking. And if you haven't seen it yet, there is a good poll for lightweight backcountry saws too. https://www.massdrop.com/vote/Lightweight-backpack-saw
